First of all, Ms Sue is just the sweetest person and it’s her restaurant. We order take out frequently, and every time my husband calls to order, Ms Sue recognizes him. When he picks up the order, Ms Sue always asks about the family. The food is consistently good. Not fancy, but good. They have a buffet during the week that’s nice for lunch. We’ve eaten China Doll 200+ times in the last 14 years and have never had a bad meal....take out or dining in.

Love the place. This is authentic Chinese food. Very tasty very inexpensive. They have a lunch buffet or order off the menu. Most dinner entrees priced less than $10.00. Lunch entrees less than $7.00. Really enjoyed the service and the great tasting food...

We have been patrons of China Doll for years. We love the fresh food, large portions, and friendly service at China Doll.

Don't be deceived by the quiet dining room at this restaurant. They do an incredible amount of take-out business because the food is great and it has been great every time we have ordered.

We love this restaurant so much that they are programmed into our cell phones for easy ordering. Our favorites, are General Tso's Chicken, Beef with Broccoli, Egg Fu Yung, Moogoo Gai Pan, and the Lo Mein.

We love to get take out at China Doll 2. Problem is deciding what to get. Everything is delicious and still hot when we get home with it. Very friendly and accommodating service. I love the hot and sour soup, egg rolls and any of the hot and spicy dishes.

I almost didn't want to share this jewel. It's not crowded yet and the service is excellent as is the food. My wife and I had the dinner for two. Very reasonable price! I got my usual kung pow chicken and she ordered Mongolian Beef. We got fried rice. Everything was top notch!
It began with the best hot and sour soup I have ever had. Very spicy, but not too hot, served with non-greasy crunchies. Her egg drop soup was pretty good too. I stole a couple of spoonfuls. The crab rangoon was excellent, but the eggroll was just cabbage. Tasty, but a bit of a dissapointment, soon made up for by the entree. The rice was perfect, as was the chicken. I didn't get any beef yet, but she said it was very good. We'll be back, hopefully before it gets crowded!
